Thanks, Jen. I know and am trying to prepare myself. I remember how hard it was for me and Goldie when I was taking her in almost every day when she was dying from her cancer. Mishi is definitely a mama's boy and sticks to me like glue; I even offered to be available for them if/when they had problems catheterizing him. She said she's never done that, however the other vet (our real vet) had me be there when they had problems with Goldie. Being brought up in a medical household, I have no problem with medical procedures and know it's just a part of life.

The vet was talking about other options like surgery, dialysis, etc. which is WAY out of my budget and things I would not put a cat through as I know they don't understand and just get more stressed.
